Bug Description
Version: Mint 14, MATE 64-bit
When you create a launcher on the desktop and set its type to "Application in Terminal", the terminal it runs the application in should be x-terminal-
A potential workaround (which I haven't tried) would be to uninstall xterm and add a symlink at /usr/bin/xterm to /usr/bin/

mate-terminal does not have a xterm wrapper, try install gnome-terminal which has one. See https:/ /askubuntu. com/questions/ 419641/ panel-apps- try-to- launch- in-xterm- even-though- it-isnt- installed/
